Manulife Health Insurance Reviews

This company is a scam. They pretend not to receive your claims. When you have them cornered, they will point out mistakes in your claim and wear you down until you give up.

Great company to invest in, poor company if you have a health claim.

I've been with Manulife for health insurance for 13 years. Every year, there is a rate increase, whereas my benefits have not increased one penny. I should get out of the plan and probably will this year.

We have Manulife as our company's health and benefits insurer. We have only been with Manulife for 1 1/2 years and I have already had two multi-month disputes with them about honouring claims. They make it as difficult as possible to get your money. You have to jump through so many hoops to get your claim that it is obvious that they just hope you eventually give up and leave them your money. We were formerly with Great West Life. What a shame that our company tried to save money by switching insurers. GWL was so nice to deal with.

This has got to be the worst god awful company I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with.

We are offered this company through our company and it is the worst company I have ever had to utilize. I have dealt with Sun Life Insurance before and they are always so quick and friendly.

They have me on an audit for the past 7 months for absolutely no reason so I am not able to do any claims online. Therefore it takes weeks to get any claim reimbursement due to having to send it in the mail. It then takes 5-7 BUSINESS days to get the reimbursement. I am with a company, so to be on ANY sort of audit, makes absolutely no sense.

I WARN COMPANIES, IF YOU ARE LOOKING TO WORK WITH A COMPANY TO OFFER YOUR EMPLOYEES, DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT USE MANULIFE.

They have a bunch of young, talent less, rude employees working there.

Let me tell you, I have never written a review in my life, but after the 3rd time of being told I can't submit online and them losing my claim forms and them not having my husband on file even though the initial forms stated this. They are known to use loopholes to not pay out, which is what they did with me. They are honestly the WORST company in North America! I will be making a complaint to my HR department in regards to this, thankfully for me, I have some pull in my company!

site down and requested to submit by mail which takes longer.
unreasonable explanation.
moving away from this provider for good.

But this shiesty company makes sure their website is down every weekend so your claims cannot be easily updated.

At first, I thought it was a routine maintenance thing but after a month of the same, I've noticed a pattern.

What they are doing is shady, deceptive, and unethical. A watchdog needs to call them on this as it is screwing thousands of people who only have time to enter receipt information on weekends out of their claims.

A cumbersome glitchy site. More often it is down than working. Manulife promises quick payment of medical claims if you submit them online. However, their website is almost always broken. For a large insurance company like this, you would think they could spare a few bucks to get their website working well. It is a tool that their customers use and therefore directly affecting the clients experience. Zero points for service on this one. Calling in does not help either, they make you send in your claim via snail mail which takes even longer to get processed.

Manulife Financial Affinity Markets health claims division is a bunch of scam ripoff artists. I'm so tired of calling in and disputing their unsubstantiated claim denials its completely ridiculous. I'm curious to know how many claims they deny and how many of their customers don't call in, complain, forcing them to reassess and then your claim is approved. I suspect they have a completely fraudulent claims department trained and incentivized to deny deny deny saving Manulife thousands maybe millions in unpaid legitimate claims. I have a disease requiring me to submit claims constantly for the exact same drugs and supplies every week or two, and every month or two they deny for no reason. The disease can't be cured, the drugs/supplies don't change in type/quantity/frequency, nothing. This company, and the people working there, are all rip off artists. Their customer service department is also horrible, they belittle you like you are doing something wrong calling in to complain about their decision when requesting an explanation as to why it was denied. They don't offer a reason, they just say, okay, we will reassess and let you know. Which translates to, oh well, this customer caught us, we'll now buy ourselves more time, never give an explanation, and eventually pay it out unless we can delay for fraudulent reasons some more. This should be a class action lawsuit to bring down this terrible company and their unscrupulous behavior.

Trying to deal with manulife has been a terrible experience for me. They say that dentist needs to fill out forms a certain way, but will not speak to the dentist. They tell me to submit a claim online and when I do it tells me I must manually submit a claim. I am of the opinion that they intentionally make things obtuse so that the claimant will give up in frustration.
